When you start your locs you palm roll the locs. After the locs grow longer the ONLY part is twisted is the NEW growth. Also you also use a (NON ALCOHOL) gel. And of course you maintain your locs by oiling your hair AND scalp. Massage the oil into your scalp. THAT'S it. I say this b/c I've had my locs over 25 years. HAVING said that to each's own.
I've been a dread head for 12 years and I don't re twist but every 4mths and they are very healthy i use tea tree oil on my scalp 2x a week, and coconut oil on my locs daily. My locs are down to my behind, I Love Them 💘
I’ve had my locs for three years. I get a retwist every three months and haven’t lost a loc yet. Everyone hair is different. I watch these videos but do my own thing.
For those of you watching this video my prayer is that you ALL come to know JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH as your LORD AND SAVIOR. ROMANS 10:9 say that if we confess with our mouth and believe in our heart that GOD raised JESUS from the dead we shall be saved.
Thanks! I truly appreciate your transparency and detailed description of your loc journey, it is very helpful for me. My birthday is on February 28th and my initial loc day is going to be on the 27th, I’m blessed to celebrate my 65 years on this journey of life. Again thank you. ❤
It's been a month since I started my locs and my hair is budding already. My hair is thin and fine. I will be getting my hair recoiled every 3-4 weeks.
I AGREE SOME😊 EVERYONE HAIR TEXTURE AND HAIR CARE IS DIFFERENT FROM EACH OTHERS😊 AND ALSO HOW FAST THEIR HAIR GROWS SO LIKE ME, I WILL WAIT EVERY 2 MONTHS, WHICH WORKS FOR ME😊 AFTER 4 YEARS LOCKED, I DECIDED TO INTERLOCK CAUSE MY ROOTS WERE PUFFY AND WOULD NOT LOCK SO, I CAN GO LONGER NOW FOR A RETWIST😊
Hi, so I’m exactly one year loced, and I still feel my hair isn’t as thick as I want it to be. I get a retwist once every four months and I thought my hair would be think but sadly it’s not, it’s still on the think side. Do you think it’s too late to get my locs thick at this point? I want to try these tips you’ve mentioned in the video to get my locs thick I hope it’s not too late cause I’m scared they’ll remain think since I’m already a year in
Hey, are you experiencing any breakage ? A retwist once every 4 months is pretty far apart ? If you’re experiencing real age then your locs would def be on the thinner side
When you interlocked your hair, did you use a 2 point, 3 point or 4 point rotation? I think many people have said that the higher the number, the more compact your locs may be. I'm considering alternating between interlocking and retwisting. I think using a 2 point rotation will still allow the locs more room to fill out and not be too compact like a 4 point. But I agree with you on not palm rolling. I would only retwist the roots for overall fullness.
I have had mine 6 months I haven’t retwistes yet most are loc’ed a few aren’t. I play in my hair a lot. I notice the ones I dnt play with loc’d quickly the ones I play with need or seem to need a retwist. I dont know. They are pretty none the less but I’m trying to train myself to leave them alone. Will it hurt my locs if I don’t get them retwisted by a professional? I been maintaining them myself
Hey sis. I started my Locs March 2023 .Thicknesses and growth I’m getting there gradually. I Retwist every 4 weeks till my hair locs. But for some reason my locs are not staying in when I Retwist, it quickly come apart after Retwist. I’m very hands on when it come to my hair and skin. I oil my scalp, make sure it stays Clean. But for 7 months now into my locs journey, I feel like my hair should be locs and not coming apart. My locs tech is great, but I think something is not going right with my locs. I’m getting the thickness and growth, but I just feel like my hair should be locs by now and to drop, and I’m not getting that. Any advise please and suggestions? Because I’m on my way to a year now, at least my hair should be able to bounce, because is not locs I’m not getting that vibes. I’m new to the locs community help me out please. Don’t want to get frustrated or switch my locs tech. May be she need to try something else or what? I know locs go through stages and time to get to your desires goals, but 7 months now, my hair should be on the path to locs and drops which will give it that bounce vibes when I move my hair. Please help me out.

So over the past year I had a lot of thinning and breakage , I got my hair retwisted 4 times last year and no matter what I do do it it’s not getting thicker .
Just wanted to let you guys know that Jesus is coming back soon! Please repent and get to know the Lord before He comes! "The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance." 2 Peter 3:9
Thanks for this. My locs are thinning am getting tempted to cut and start again. Am two and a half years in, styled after every retwist, so tightly at times😔
I feel like loc styling after retwisting def contributes to breakage. I see so many women who style after getting their hair retwisted and keep it in for as long as they can. I think it’s too much tension placed on the scalp and leads to thinning at the roots. I would avoid styling it for a while & lightly retwist it and see if your roots thicken back up.
